Popular Post Dr. Love Posted June 8, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2023 (edited) Saw this and had to have it hang in my house. Powerful, painful, with a palette you certainly don't see much in use in these type of studies. Green evokes a feeling of abundance and is associated with refreshment and peace, rest and security. It can represent new beginnings and growth. And yet in this scene it casts a surreal glow, maybe distances us into a fugue state where we can observe and detach along with the men while still empathize with Her. The artist is Harry Anderson, not the comic book artist but an American illustrator. "Weeping Woman", Good Housekeeping magazine interior illustration, November 1943 Gouache on board If you can understand why it fascinates me, then you'll understand partly why I collect romance.

Green is also used in theater to denote spirits and the deceased. Dr. Love 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BuscemasAvengers Posted July 3, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2023 Last week, I posted a small handful of GA/SA romance books in a few threads (like the 'GA With Less Than Ten Copies in the CGC Census' thread) other than this one. I've acquired another batch, and would like to share them here, starting with this Lovers 49. Many of these have low numbers on the Census as well. comicjack, CrocHntr, Dr. Love and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuscemasAvengers Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 My Own Romance 10; GCD says Kamen art in the story below - uncertain about this. Sadly, even though this books predates me by almost 15 years, I owned a similar housecoat. Point Five 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
